“Do you feel it, too? There is Xmas in the air.
Today, we will discover together the 5 Italian Christmas traditions.
5 just like the 5 senses of ANYWAYS EXPERIENCES.

1) In Italy, the Christmas tree is made on December 8th and is removed on January 6th, the day of the Befana. Who is the befana? We will find it out shortly.
2) Panettone or Pandoro`The choice is difficult.
This is in fact the dilemma that all Italians have every Christmas.
3) Do you want a lot of money? Then eat lentils! They bring abundance and money in the new year.
4) There is one more thing that brings good luck: wearing red underwear on New Year’s Eve.
5) Finally she, our Befana, the old lady who on January 6th at night bring socks full of sweets for all the children.
And you? What do you prefer? Panettone or Pandoro?
I prefer the pandoro!”

English Translation:

“These are Cappuccino and Charlie. My tender cats.
Did you know that cats are the protagonists of many curious expressions of the Italian language? Let’s find out together.
Number 1: “Essere 4 gatti” (being 4 cats) means being in few people
2nd “Avere una bella gatta da pelare” (Having a nice cat to peel) indicates when we are facing a really difficult situation.
3rd “Qui gatta ci cova” (Here the cat is brooding) means that there is something suspicious in a situation
4th “Essere come cane e gatto” (being like cat and dog) means that 2 people don’t get along and fight often.
And you? Who are you “cat and dog” with?
Write it to us in the comments.”

English Translation:
“Today I prepare for myself a snack with bread and oil.
Do you know that there are many ways of saying with the word “bread”?
For example, a person can be said to be “buona come il pane” (as good as bread) when that person is lovable and kind. It can be said that something it is not “pane per i tuoi denti” (bread for your teeth) when something is not suitable for you. You can “dar pane per focaccia” (give bread back for focaccia) when you act even worse as the action you recevied
And you, are you a “piece of bread”?
Well, in the meantime I eat my bread!

English Translation:
“Brr che freddo (it’s cold).
This is what we say when it’s “freddo cane” (freezing cold, litterally translated in dog-cold). The cold can also be a “thief-cold”.
But also a person can be “fredda come il ghiaccio” (cold as ice), when for example he/she communicates bad news to us “a freddo” (in cold bood, unemotionally), making us “sciogliere come neve al sole” (melt like snow in the sun) and why not, even making us “sudare freddo” (be in a cold sweat).
So cover up for today, because brrr “fa un freddo cane” (it’s freezing cold).
